Research stimulated by increases in maternal employment has focused primarily on children, even though mothers of adolescents are more likely to be employed. It is adolescents who experience developmental changes that promote participation in adult behaviours in advance of their abilities. This study investigated the effects of maternal employment on the use of alcohol, cigarettes, marijuana, and other substances by early adolescents. A sample of ninth - grade sutdents responded to a 48 - item survey about their substance use behaviour. A comparison of maternal employment patterns (full - time vs part - time / not employed outside the home) indicated no significant differences in substance use behaviour. These results confirmed and extended the growing literature regarding the non harmful effects of maternal employment on adolescent adjustment and behaviour.
